5.0 out of 5 stars Very encouraging and practical book on Fathering, October 16, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Anchor Man: How a Father Can Anchor His Family in Christ for the Next 100 Years (Hardcover)

Steve has done an outstanding job on explaining the purpose of fathering and how to go about doing it. The illustrations that he uses aren't ones that you just quickly read over and forget, but ones you take with you. With so much fluff coming at fathers from the media, this book really gives you something you can sink your teeth into.

This review is from: Anchor Man: How a Father Can Anchor His Family in Christ for the Next 100 Years (Hardcover)

I passed this book on to a gentleman who was bound and determined to get a divorce. This book along with prayer turned his life around. He is now involved in a local church and is committed to keeping is family together as one godly unit! Everyone should have this in their library to save a marriage or family. If you are considering divorce or seperation, please read at least the first four chapters of this book.

Grounded in Christian principals, this book is a foundational guide to successful fatherhood in todays chaotic environment. Anchor Man is a real-world evaluation of the challenges and triumphs facing Christian men.
